Jan. 6th, 2009 02:17 pmFor anyone who is as confused as I was about the whole "wtf lj" thing:
http://valleywag.gawker.com/5124184/the-russian-bear-slashes-a-social-network (apparently has some inaccuracies which were pointed out in some of the other posts I've read)
Another story here: http://news.cnet.com/8301-13577_3-10132684-36.html?
http://www.webpronews.com/topnews/2009/01/06/livejournal-makes-deep-personnel-cuts
http://sourceforge.net/projects/ljarchive/ (a tool to download your lj with comments, I think this is windows only. Even if LJ isn't exploding this is a good idea, you never know what may happen. I'm doing this when I get home since the past 7 years of my life are on this thing)
Sorry I didn't save the link for the Macintosh one but I'm sure you can find it if you are interested (there are definitely some linked in various posts linked from the following):

Stop Motion Space Invaders
Nov. 28th, 2006 10:22 amThis video is incredible... stop motion space invaders!!
I cringe to think at how much WORK this must have been, though! Wow :P

In other news, I've started reading Pillars of the World. I'm a little confused because I thought I'd started reading it before, but I remember the beginning being different... I think I might have started reading House of Gaian or something like that. I know I didn't get much more than 20 or so pages into it though. Anyway, so far, Pillars of the World is good - the characters aren't as good as the Black Jewels Trilogy, but maybe they'll become more interesting as the story progresses. I'm only about 100 pages in.

Kate showed me this a while ago and I think it is incredible :) I wish I knew who the original people were who did it. I am going to attempt to do something similar to this for my final project in Art 297 :D
